Thanks @theroastery ! I worked on the profile this weekend, and have yet to cup it. But the profile looks more promising. I gave the beans more gas upfront and did shorten the maillard phase by two mi...

Hello, I have been roasting on the 1kg since about January this year. I have adjusted the drum gap, oiled the chain, and greased the rear bearing with the zerk fitting. The front bearings are starting...

When roasting to match a specific profile I frequently come into issues where the roast is running a little fast or a little slow. With all things considered, I have heard that the time spent in devel...

Have other roasters experienced there beans tipping? Ive noticed on my brazil natural I am getting some tipping when I charge around 390F with a 1 min soak. At 1 min gas is set to 1.5 KPA. Thinking I ...

Steve, Correct me if I am wrong but I believe these are all examples of tipping (pics below). Not all the beans in the roast were tipped but a handful did. These beans are from my profile 6 which was...

Thanks for the response Steve. To answer your question, I am charging based off my PID and dropping based off my BT in Roast path. I tried out the new settings. Set my drum speed to 80, which gives me...

Between the two cups, profile 9 is better. Profile 11 is quite flat which makes me think the drying time of 5:35 is too long. I will shoot for drying time of 5 min on the new profile with a static ai...

I am curious who here drops based off of BT probe and who drops based on PID Temp. I have noticed there can be quite a variance between the two from roast to roast. My judgement is telling me that BT ...

Steve // Mill City Roasters + RoastPATH said: Preheat via the PID display and discharge your coffee at the BT finish temp. Thanks Bud!

Hello Everyone! New roaster here and just starting to learn on my MCR-1. Absolutely love roasting my own coffee and roast path has been great to use. Being a new roaster I am starting to figure out...

Thank you Steve! I will re-read that a few times to digest to fully. I appreciate the response. FYI Im really enjoying roast path, it is a great production and learning tool!
